Slide Gate

The Vortex Titan Series Abrasion Resistant Slide Gate is ideal for abrasive materials such as whole grains, coal, metal powders or minerals up to 400 F (204 C). The heavy duty frame is constructed with carbon steel and is available in standard sizes from 6 in. to 30 in. (100 mm to 750 mm) with custom square or rectangular sizes up to 72 in. (1.8 m) and larger.
A beveled, abrasion resistant blade and a displacement pocket on the closing end of the valve allow the gate to close through a standing column of material. Furthermore, the product features “live loaded” wear compensating seals that prevent materials from escaping into the bonnet area of the gate. These seals are easily replaced without removing the valve from the processing line. Adapting the slide gate to a system is made easy with a wide selection of gate positioning controls, position indication switches, and flanges. Vortex Valves, www.vortexvalves.com
